Bonus Session: Get Your Facebook Page Talking
Presented by Heather Jackson

Have any of the below thoughts passed your mind?
- Who Turned Off My Facebook Page?
 -Is Facebook Marketing Dead?
 -Is it still good to be liked?
 -What the …should I delete my Facebook Page?

Ever since Facebook made changes to their algorithm, it’s been increasingly harder to get your posts in front of the people who like your page. Frustrating right? Are you wondering if you should continue to promote your businesses on Facebook? It’s time to stop wondering and time to start increasing your online conversations.

“Wow that sounds like a lot of work- is it?”
“Is this just a waste of time?”
“Should I switch to another social media platform?”

All questions we have been asked over and over again by organizations and small business owners.

In this session Heather will breakdown how you use your Facebook page as a lead generation strategy for your business or organization. Let's get your Facebook page talking!
